West Oaks Mall is a mall located in Ocoee, Florida. It has 115 store spaces, a food court, and a 14-screen AMC Movie Theatre. A carousel ride and a photobooth are also located near the theatres.
The mall has been in decline for several years due to economic downturn in the area, and the resulting increase in crime.[3] Police calls originating from the mall have increased steadily, for problems including assault, car thefts, and more.[4][5] Many of the national brands have left (the most recent being Sears in January 2013), leaving parts of the mall either vacant or replaced by local shops.[6][7]
In 2012, West Oaks Mall was sold by General Growth Properties for $15.9 million, and put under new management. The new owners, Moonbeam Capital Investments LLC, have a history of purchasing struggling retail properties to turn them around. With the purchase of the mall, they have announced intentions to aggressively fill the empty anchor spaces with national tenants, and replace the lower end shops that attract a less desirable shopper base.
